The two examples the US uses - 'chilling online free speech after the Southport attacks' (translation: not giving credence to the lies Farage and the extreme right invented about the immigration status of the perpetrator in order to avoid people being burned to death in hotels) and 'prohibitions around silent prayer outside abortion clinics' (translation: stopping christofascists from trying to intimidate service users and providers) speak volumes about what fascist America sees as the only important free speech.

It’s true, while hilariously hypocritical. I feel bad for laughing. But gallows humor, as they say.

I won’t be the one calling the UK blameless, but that’s rich coming from the country that’s doing what they are with ICE (which is just the latest one in a long list).
